    Talking Pop-a-point

    Does anyone remember pop-a-point pencils and jumbo rubbers? a pencil case just wasn't complete without them.!!

    Now those I do remember. A barrel/pencil with pre sharpened tips, when one was used you "popped" the next one up with the one you'd just used Loved the ones with different colours.

    I had one of those giant-sized biro type pens (clear plastic) with blue green & red ink..you rotated the whole pen above the nib to select your colour

    I had Pop A Point Pencils too! Some were coloured and others were a translucent blue with normal leads in them?

    I wonder if you kept them in one of those fun fur pencil cases with an animals face on, glass wobbly eyes and a beak design?
